He can't deflect the shot completely - even in this form, he only has half the defense he should have - but the attack that would have torn his EX form apart only seems to graze him, rocking him backward for a moment. Impressive, how quickly he regains his balance on that one small wheel.
Most of the damage isn't physical. Which would be a distinction without a difference for any other monster, of course. Mettaton's expecting the pain but it still hits him hard, that chill that surrounds the human focused down to a point and targeted straight at him. He can't help letting out a staticky little gasp, as he rights himself and launches a jagged stream of lightning bolts in return.

"Hhh... my, you really are merciless."
